What hazard zone is decontamination conducted?

Decontamination is typically conducted in the "hot zone," which is the area that is directly contaminated and poses the highest risk to safety. This zone is where hazardous materials are present, and personnel must take precautions to avoid exposure. Decontamination may also occur in the "warm zone," where controlled decontamination procedures are established, allowing for safe transition to the "cold zone," where no contamination is present.
